  • not true, in north america she’s actually the 6th female president, and 10th female leader overall! (maybe many USians don’t know but North America includes everything above South America, including Central America and the Caribbean)

    NA countries that have had a female president (excluding countries where the presidency is only a figurehead role):

    • Costa Rica

    • Haiti

    • Honduras (incumbent)

    • Nicaragua

    • Panama

    NA countries that have had a female PM (excluding countries where the prime ministry is only a figurehead role):

    • Barbados (incumbent)

    • Canada (only interim so kinda on a technicality)

    • Dominica

    • Jamaica









  • The same shit happened to gen z in like 2016 with leafyishere and Ben Shapiro and all the other anti-SJW shit my middle school classmates had going on. It was a phase for us, hopefully it’s a phase for them too. I watched so many guys in my high school grow out of the edgy conservative stuff and become decent people. I think it’s mainly a young boy with unlimited internet access sorta thing, before college they tend to mature out of it, at least from my experience

    Remember a few years ago when reddit was convinced gen z would be more conservative because of polling on like, 13-17 year olds, and a few years later it turned out opposite?




  • This would never succeed. Pretty sure the UK is the only EU country that’s polled anywhere close to 50% pro-leave

    In the most recent German poll I could find (a few months back, when AfD was polling at similar numbers), only 10% of Germans wanted to leave the EU (and 42% of AfD supporters)

    Btw, am I the only feeling the media giving AfD all this attention is having a 2015 Trump effect? My German friends tell me AfD supporters just shout “fake news” at everything, particularly at the mass deportation story. I saw some messages and they were like, “the mainstream media lies, the meeting was between random irrelevants,” “Alice Weidel says immigrant citizens are as German as the rest of us,” “the AfD only wants to deport illegals and criminals.” Sounds extremely familiar, only I think Weidel is a more competent fascist and better at putting a mask on then Trump?
